all those useless emotions.<p>simple facts can't be avoided.<p>nobody is willing to lend greece money besides the ECB. tsipras tried putin and china, both turned him down.<p>the greek-style of socialism (coalition with the extreme right notwithstanding) relies on foreign capital. once that runs out, it is over.<p>greece has never built up any robust, modern facets of statehood. there is no central database of landownership. parties act like clans, hand out positions based on loyalty, not merit.<p>it's a second world country that thinks of itself as the leader of the first world, as witnessed in endless, tiresome discussions with various greek representatives. they're all so smart, yet their economy doesn't produce shit.<p>spain, portugal, the eastern europeans all got their act together and worked out plans to move along. greece decided to call the people they're borrowing money from nazis and terrorists.<p>greece never qualified as a member to the EU, it was a historic mistake to accept them. grexit, now. let the rest of europe govern and prosper in peace.
